Vehicle Tips

According to recent studies, 5 percent of all motor vehicle fatalities are clearly caused by automobile maintenance neglect.

Vehicle Tips

The cooling system should be completely flushed and refilled about every 24 months. The level, condition, and concentration of coolant should be checked. (A 50/50 mix of anti-freeze and water is usually recommended.)

Vehicle Tips

Never remove the radiator cap until the engine has thoroughly cooled. The tightness and condition of drive belts, clamps and hoses should be checked by a pro.

Vehicle Tips

Change your oil and oil filter as specified in your manual, or more often (every 3,000 miles) if you make frequent short jaunts, extended trips with lots of luggage or tow a trailer.

Vehicle Tips

Replace other filters (air, fuel, PCV, etc.) as recommended, or more often in dusty conditions. Get engine drivability problems (hard stops, rough idling, stalling, diminished power, etc.) corrected at a good shop.

Vehicle Tips

A dirty windshield causes eye fatigue and can pose a safety hazard. Replace worn blades and get plenty of windshield washer solvent.

Vehicle Tips

Have your tires rotated about every 5,000 miles. Check tire pressures once a month; let the tires cool down first. Don't forget your spare and be sure your jack is in good condition.

Vehicle Tips

Vehicle Tips

Inspect the engine's belts regularly. Look for cracks or missing sections or segments. Worn belts will affect the engine performance.

Vehicle Tips

Have the fuel filter changed every 10,000 miles to prevent rust, dirt and other impurities from entering the fuel system.

Vehicle Tips

Change the transmission fluid and filter every 15,000 to 18,000 miles. This will protect the precision-crafted components of the transmission/transaxle.

Vehicle Tips

Inspect the suspension system regularly. This will extend the life of the vehicle's tires.

Reviews and comments from our satisfied customers

Yikes!! I have had two good repair services in the past. This last experience, which lasted two full days, was frustrating, and one signal repair problem remains,
although the billing invoice says otherwise.
I will be staying away.

I moved out of Baltimore and my 1996 Civic is in car heaven, but thank you Nicolas Fleet Shell for always providing excellent service, a fair price, and an honest, friendly business. You set the standard for auto service shops.

I have to say that the 20+ years I have lived in this neighborhood, I have always used Fleet St Shell for my car repairs, because they are excellent at what they do. They are always helpful and courteous and really go out of their way to accommodate customers! A great place to go!

Bill and his team have kept my 93 Honda Accord running like a top for 15+ yrs despite scarcity of parts.

Darlene C.

They were awesome when I showed up distraught with a flat tire having no idea what to do. They repaired the tire the same day for $20, didn't overcharge a young woman, and were very polite. It's been about a month now and I've had no problems with the repair.

Always have great experiences from Fleet Street Shell...they are honest and quick and take good care of my car. Provide estimates before doing anything and get the job done quickly. The mechanics are friendly and always call with an update, Melanie always answers with a smile and friendly face. I recommend! :)

I've brought my car here for over 5 years for a variety of issues. Fair, honest, good communication and great work. The owner personally gets involved to make sure all is right.

Owner came out and took a look at my car. After talking w him a bit I asked if he could help with my current business and move some cars or let my truck park in his lot for a few hrs. His answer?? We're all in this together..no sweat. We'll help you.
Bottom line? He gets it. You want an honest car repair place? Hard to find....this is one.
